The Thamud (also) rejected (their) Warners. 23 And they said: a mere human being from amongst us, and single! shall we follow him! verily then we should fall in error and madness. 24 Was he the one of all of us to have been given the exposition? He is surely an impudent liar." 25 Ah! they will know on the morrow, which is the liar, the insolent one! 26 For We will send the she-camel by way of trial for them. So watch them, (O Salih), and possess thyself in patience! 27 Let them know that the water should be divided between them and the she-camel, each availing their turn.” 28 Then they called their comrade, and he took in hand, and hamstrung her. 29 So how did My punishment turn out, and My warnings? 30 Verily, We sent against them a single Saihah (torment - awful cry, etc.), and they became like the dry stubble of a fold-builder. 31 Now We have made the Koran easy for Remembrance. Is there any that will remember? 32 The people of Lot denied the warning. 33 Verily We! We sent upon them a gravel-storm save the household of Lut; them We delivered at early dawn. 34 A favor from Us; thus do We reward him who gives thanks. 35 He had warned them of Our might, but they passed over the warnings. 36 They even asked of him his guests for an ill purpose. Then We blinded their eyes (and said): Taste now My punishment after My warnings! 37 And verily, an abiding torment seized them early in the morning. 38 So taste My punishment and warning. 39 We have made it easy indeed to learn lessons from the Quran. Is there anyone who would receive admonition? 40
